[PATCH v3 32/32] Documentation: spi: Update documentation for renaming "master" to "controller"

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In commit 8caab75fd2c2 ("spi: Generalize SPI "master" to "controller"")
some functions and struct members were renamed. Adapt the documentation
accordingly.
